For Monero mining, the required hardware includes a CPU with at least 4GB of RAM (8GB recommended), DDR3 or DDR4 SDRAM depending on the CPU chosen, and a mining setup that can efficiently use either CPU or GPU for mining, as Monero's consensus algorithm, Cryptonight V7, supports both types of mining.
